Five Free Copies of jsmag - for javascript developers (if you love jQuery)

I love jQuery because it handles XML seamlessly, jQuery FTW!

:-)

$( { Name: "Ben" } )
.bind( "whyDoYouLovejQuery", function(){ alert( "Cause it makes things so easy!!!" ); } )
.trigger( "whyDoYouLovejQuery" )
;

I love jQuery and I'd like to see the mag. ;)

JQuery makes life so much easier!

I love jquery because it makes my job easier....and who doesn't love that? The ultimate time saver.

I love jQuery because Rey Bango said I had to...

Please tell me your article is on version 1.7. The book on UI is great but the coding style could use a couple of upgrades for sure. (Not wrong per se, but different approach that was sorta like a hack.) He also got caught in the upgrade conflict in the book. At the time his book came out on 1.6 the core jQuery 1.3 was released and they didn't work together. A patch was in the works but that made it hard for someone here to use the book to learn between version conflicts and coding style.
Now I use jQuery UI and think it is great. Please no one take that wrong... if you do the book follow the book exactly and you will get it. If you are learning outside the book learn 1.7 with 1.3 core.

Hi All,

Thanks for the comments! The lucky first five were Brian, Rob, Ben, Simon and Jim. Hopefully Rey can use some of the comments for his jQuery marketing :-)

@John, Yep - 1.7. I downloaded the latest version and wrote the article in the last two weeks. One benefit of mags over books - it's quicker to go from idea to production so version changes are less likely to be a problem.

PS: cfbloggers is GREAT, Ray, hope you take no offense...

Great jQuery article!
